Task 1
Maybey Bank uses spreadsheet software to record its customers’ loan records. You
are required to finish setting up the spreadsheet to record the details.
Open the file BANK.XLSX. You will see the following data.
Save the file as LOAN_<your name>_<class>_<index number>
1 For the cell range B5:B16, use an appropriate function to extract the first letter of
the Customer Code to represent the Account Type.
[1]
2 Use an appropriate function to search for the Number of Years in the Loan Plan
Term Table given and use it to complete the Number of Years in Loan Plan
column.
[2]
3 Use an appropriate function to search for the Interest Rate per Annum in the
Interest Rate Table given and use it to complete the Interest Rate per Year
column.
[2]
4 Enter a formula to calculate the total amount of money each customer will have to
pay at the end of their loan plan period. This is based on the Number of Years in
Loan Plan, Interest Rate per Year compounded monthly and Loan Amount.
Use that value to complete the Total Amount of Pay column
[3]
5 Use a conditional statement, to identify those customers who have taken a loan
amount of more than $45000 and whose application method was online, and put
YES in the Free $70 Cash-back column. Otherwise, put NO in the Free $70
Cash-back column.
[2]
Save and close your file.
Task 2
3
The following program accepts the weight in kg for 15 students and prints out the
highest weight and the average weight of the students. The weights are in the range of
20kg to 140kg (inclusive).
heaviest = 20
total_weight = 0
no_of_students = 15
for student in range(no_of_students):

weight = float(input("Enter the weight of student in kg: "))
if heaviest < weight:
heaviest = weight
total_weight = total_weight + weight
average_weight = total_weight/no_of_students
print("Heaviest weight of the students is ", heaviest)

print("Average weight of the students is ", average_weight)
Open the file WEIGHT.py
Save the file as CLASSWEIGHT_<your name>_<class>_<index number>
6 Edit the program so that it:
(a) Accepts weight for 36 students. [1]
(b) Prints out the lightest weight as well as the heaviest weight. [4]
(c) Test if the weight input is between 20kg and 140kg (inclusive), and if not, asks
the user for input again as necessary.
[3]
Save your program.
7 Save your program as VARWEIGHT_<your name>_<class>_<index number>
Edit your program so that it works for any number of students. [2]
Save your program.

Task 3
The following program is used to check if a customer is allowed on the rollercoaster

ride based on age and height. The program is created to check based on the
following rules:
• It accepts up to a maximum of 20 customer entries or the checker inputs a

“0,0”.
• All entry data are in the format: “age,height(in cm)” e.g 14,174
• Customers below 5 years old or above 55 years old are not allowed entry
• Customers below the height of 130 or above the height of 180 are not allowed
entry
You can assume that all entries will be in the format age,height(in cm)
There are several syntax errors and logical errors in the program.
customer = 1
data = input (("Enter details of customers: ")
date=data.split(",")
age = int(data[1])
height = int(data[0])
while customer != 20 or not(age != 0 and height != 0):
if age<5 or age>55 or height<130 or height>=180:

print("Entry denied, you do not meet the requirements")
else:
print("Entry allowed. Please enjoy your ride.")
customer = customer + 1
if customer == 5:
break
data = input ("Enter details of next customers: ")

date=data.split(",")
age = int(data[0])
height = int(data[1])
print("Please check safety belts of customers and get ready to start ride."
Open the file RIDE.py
Save the file as ROLLERRIDE_<your name>_<class>_<index number>
8 Identify and correct the errors in the program so that it works correctly according
to the rules above.
[10]
Save your program.

Task 4
You have been asked to write a program to verify the check digit of the Singapore NRIC
number. The last letter at the end of the NRIC number is called a checksum. The
checksum allows us to check if the NRIC number has been entered correctly.
The algorithm for generating the checksum is as follows:
• Multiply the seven digits against a given weight

[2,7,6,5,4,3,2].
For NRIC number S1234567D, the sum is
(1 x 2) + (2 x 7) + (3 x 6) + (4 x 5) + (5 x 4) + (6 x 3) + (7 x 2) = 106
• If the first letter of the NRIC starts with T or G, add 4 to the total.
• Then you divide the number by 11 and get the remainder.
106/11 = 9 remainder 7
• The letter you get depends on the first letter in the IC using the code below:
First letter is either S or T

Remainder 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Equivalent Letter J Z I H G F E D C B A
First letter is either F or G

Remainder 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Equivalent Letter X W U T R Q P N M L K
The checksum D for S1234567D is correct.
The program should allow you to:
• Enter an NRIC number in the format L0000000L.

(L represents a letter, 0 represents a number)
• Ensure that only characters in the correct format is accepted.
• Store the weights as a constant in an array.
• Calculate the weighted sum of the NRIC number.
• Calculate the remainder of the weighted sum.
• Calculate the checksum and verify if the NRIC entered is correct.
• Display the output on the screen. Your output must look like this:
The NRIC no. to check is: T4235285Z

Weighted sum is: 111
Calculated checksum: Z
The NRIC number is correct.
The NRIC no. to check is: S4232265Z

Weighted sum is: 86
Calculated checksum: B
The NRIC number is incorrect.
9 Write your program and test that it works. [10]
Save your program as MYNRIC_<your name>_<class>_<index number>

10 When your program is working, use the following test data to show your test
results:
S9374728J
T0005923J
G7730493R
Take a screen shot of your results and save it as a jpeg.

NRICRESULT_<your name>_<class>_<index number> [5]
11 Save your program as NRICCON_<your name>_<class>_<index number>

Extend your program to continuously check the numbers until “q” is entered
Save your program. [2]
12 Save your program as NRICCHANGE_<your name>_<class>_<index number>

Extend your program to allow the user to enter values for new weights(in
the event Singapore decides to change the formula to obtain a new
checksum) and calculate the checksum based on the new weights.
The user should be asked to key in weights in the format

[x,x,x,x,x,x,x] (should only be 7 digits) then ask for the NRIC number to be
checked. You can assume that the values used for weights will be single
digits only. [3]
Save your program
